Jnani on Giving

A poor man asked a Jnani,
“Why am I so poor?”
The Jnani said, “you do not learn to give.”
So the poor man said, “If I’m not having anything?”
Jnani said: “You have a few things,
The Face, which can give a smile;
Mouth: you can praise or comfort others;
The Heart: it can open up to others;
Eyes: who can look the other with the eyes of goodness;
Body: which can be used to help others.”
